Physics 101

What is Physics 101?

Physics 101 is a native Mac education app for learning and exploring core physics concepts through equations, calculators, and interactive simulations. It is designed for students, teachers, and independent learners who want help with common topics such as motion, forces, circuits, optics, oscillations, and relativity. The app combines a large library of physics formulas with tools that let users change values and see results immediately, which is useful for homework, demonstrations, and concept review. It also includes multiple visual modules for working with projectiles, vectors, force diagrams, unit conversion, and lab-style analysis. On macOS, it fits well as a study companion for science courses or as a lightweight classroom support tool. Physics 101 is published by Jake Mavity under Praeter Software.

Key features

• Solve physics equations across many topic areas with built-in formula tools
• Explore interactive simulations for projectiles, circuits, forces, optics, and orbits
• Adjust values live to see how changes affect results and relationships
• Use unit conversion and vector tools for common classroom calculations
• Work with motion analysis and lab-style study tools during coursework
• Reference formula guides and variable explanations while studying

Safety overview

Status: Safe

This is a standard educational desktop app for macOS. Its normal use is to provide study tools and simulations, and the listed App Store privacy information says the developer does not collect data. Keep the app if you use its physics tools; removing it should only affect the app’s own content and settings.

Recommendation: Keep Physics 101 if you use it for coursework, teaching, or science review. If you no longer need its equations and simulations, you can remove it like other Mac apps without affecting macOS itself.
